Combining typical response time of 0.5 ns with capacitance values down to 70 pF (25 pF optional) in accordance with CECC42000 and IEC 61051-1, the MLV 2322 series of multi-layer varistors numbers among its applications voltage pulse interference

Combining typical response time of 0.5 ns with capacitance values down to 70 pF (25 pF optional) in accordance with CECC42000 and IEC 61051-1, the MLV 2322 series of multi-layer varistors numbers among its applications voltage pulse interference protection, ESD protection, RFI suppression, and I/O port protection in products such as cell phones, audio/video systems, computers, and portable instruments. Features of the MLV 2322 573 (0603 case size) and 574 (0805 case size) varistors include inherent bi-directional clamping, a high energy/volume ratio, and nickel/tin, lead-free terminations. Maximum average power dissipation is rated at 5 mW, while working voltages range from 4V to 25V, depending on device. Pricing for 573 and 574 devices is $0.38 and $0.50 each/1,000, respectively.
